I completely understand where you&#39;re coming from: doing &#39;nothing&#39; isn&#39;t something I find easy at all. Even if my brain is doing nothing, my hands have to be busy sewing (or my legs if I&#39;m out for a run!). Being at peace and just focussing on what I&#39;m doing slows me down. It&#39;s a wonderful space to be in :)Stephiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09461286927746997845noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34488264.post-35995925345985381202016-10-31T21:19:12.408-04:002016-10-31T21:19:12.408-04:00The quilting on your bowtie quilt looks so precise...The quilting on your bowtie quilt looks so precise.

I love the texture, and the way it scrunches up when you use cotton batting, which I always do.

I agree with the statement, you can&#39;t stop with just one. I know when I have a quilt in the frame to hand quilt, I try to quilt at least 15 minutes a day. Often that 15 minutes turns into an hour.
